Answer 1

let's son age equal to X

father age = 3x

x+3x=44

4x=44

x=44/4

x =11

henceson age equal to 11 year

father age equal to 11 .3=33years

Answer 2

Answer:

son's age = 11 years

father's age = 33 years

Step-by-step explanation:

let son's age be x

let father's age be 3x

x + 3x = 44

4x = 44

x = 44 / 4

x = 11

son's age = x

= 11

father's age = 3x

= 3 × 11

= 33

so father's age = 33

son's age = 11
